Hi. I came over after you posted on my LJ, and I'm having fun with your puzzles.

Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with the Polyominoes part of this puzzle. I think it might be inconsistent. To be sure, are the fours that the puzzles share located in squares @%#^!$ of each respective row?

Thanks for coming over!

You're right, the Polyominoes is inconsistent, in that it doesn't require that each row or column contain distinct numbers. However in this Polyominoes, you can be sure that there is only one four in each row and each column, because of the constraints of the other three puzzles.

Well, I caught that rule. I'm saying I can't place the ones, twos, threes, and fives in consistent manners (defined as one in each polyomino that size or larger, without two of the same digit touching orthogonally or diagonally). That's why I asked about the positions of the fours (using the shift key to prevent accidental spoilers).
